Electrical System Deficiencies in Resident Rooms
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain electrical systems in wet locations, as evidenced by a damaged Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) receptacle next to the sink in resident room 142. This deficiency was observed during a survey conducted on December 30, 2024, between 10:45 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. Additionally, in resident room 112, an electrical receptacle was found pulling out of the electrical box behind the TV stand, and a blank receptacle cover was missing at the bottom right of the P-Tec, close to the floor. These issues were confirmed during an interview with the Executive Director at the exit conference on the same day.
Plan Of Correction
The ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) receptacle in room 142 was replaced on 01/13/2025. The Facility Director or appointee will inspect, test, and audit all GFCI receptacles at time of repair and then quarterly thereafter.
